Soulja boy graces the Summer fashion cover of Fault which drops in July. You always see dude dripped in Gucci/Louie but for the cover its the more conventional suit dress me down look. Stupid fresh suit though Soulja. People might not like his lyrical ability, but hands down he is one of the forerunners of fashion for hip-hop hands down.
Everybody knows Khalifa goes hard on everything he does. Releasing Taylor Allderdice earlier this year, to being arrested twice within the past week, nothing seems to slow this dude down.

If you havent heard this mans music, download Thursday, House of Balloons, and Echoes of Silence and experience TheWeeknd for yourself.
